So be it!

Come, come, you all-engrossing Fog,

You're "going the whole hog,"

And hoggishly won't let me see it!

Pit-pat again! encore pit-pat!

Oh, disappointment dire! a vagabond tom-cat!

Here, Paddy that I kick'd, if you can see,

Kick this great mousing brute in lieu of me!

Well, if again I go out in a fog,

May I be call'd a blind man's stupid dog,
